About Indian Cove Group

Download the NPS app prior to visiting the park – trail maps and more! Indian Cove Campground lies amid the huge, steep rock formations for which Joshua Tree National Park is known. Because of its proximity to many rock climbing routes, it is a popular camping location for climbers. Indian Cove Group is one of three group campgrounds in the park that can be reserved year round. To get the most out of your visit Plan Like a Park Ranger  Travelers who enjoy warm, dry winters flock to Joshua Tree from October through May, when temperatures hover between 70-90 degrees during the day and drop to a 40-60 degree range at night. Summer is the park's off-season due to the uncomfortably-high desert heat. Indian Cove is at an elevation of 3,200 feet.

Such a gem of a place. There was so much space to wander and spread out! Also not so far away from civilization (just in case). We will definitely be back

The facilities and space at our group site were great. So good to be able to space out, pitch our tents and enjoy this lovely camping location. Really enjoyed being round a campfire again with good friends.
